The object in publishing this in these columns is
to furnish to those afflicted with chronic OF
lOng-standing diseases such reliable information
as will enable them to determine the true charac-
ter OF their disease and the best means to be
adopted for cure. 1t is fact which the commu-
nifty have been made to bitterly realize, that ordi
nary physicians do not cure chronic diseases; and
it is only just and right that the should be
explained for This lack of the part of the
physician to this, by far the largest class of
diseases.
Years of study and observation demonstrate that
the real cause of this failure to lies in the fact
that physicians of all schools OF practice in
their treatment of disease poisonous drugs,
which not only do not and cannot cure, but a
positive injury to the system. The injurious eff
fects of these drugs are made apparent every day,
in the weak and deblitated condition of mind and
body, the shattered nervous sytem with persons
rise from fevers other acute diseases, in the
rapid increase of invalidism, and sudden and in
applicable deaths, many of the deaths from heart
or brain disease many of the cases of Indigestion
kidney and liver complaints, are directly the re-
suit OF the action of strong poisonous medicine.
Professor VanDucen of Paris in commenting up
on this subject, says: 1--WE cannot accept the
theory that poison which we know will injure or
kill well person is going to prove curative and
health giving when given to one who is sick. We
believe that science and common sense should go
hand in hand; and it is certainly not common
sense to say that deadly poison cam under any
circumstances, be beneficial or curative.
1t is for this reason that accept fully the
theory of DR.. Royce of Boston, Mass. The doctor
believes that all poisons injurious to the system
The doctor has furnished all the harmless vegeta-
BILE remedies necessary all forms of disease
Acting upon this theory he discards all poisonous
drugs and by study and deep research has devel-
Oped system of curing diseases, especially those
of a chronic or long standing form, by the use of
harmless vegetable remedies, which are cleansing,
purifying, and invigorating.
This is not mere theory. but established
fact; and the doctors remarkable cnres of of
disease in many instances where all hope was lost
and the case given up incurable by physicians
of eminence demonstrate that he is upon the right
track. We constantly meeting people who have
been restored to health by this treatment; and the
doctors fame is not local one, the sick come
from all parts of the country to be healed by these
mild but efficacious remedies.
I'VE speak strongly, because we know whereof
we speak. We have caseS of chronic diseases
fade and sink under treatment by poisonous drugs
and have seen the same invalids under the of
these vegetable remedies, gain rapidly until per-
feet and permanent health was restored. We be-
lieve this theory and practice of medicine ad
in the right direction, and predicted from
the first that the people would readily its truth
and accept the wonderful benefits of its practice.
And the result has certainly borne out predic-
TONS for thousands of sufferers from chronic dis
eases have been cured by these remedies; and
from the many constantly applying for treatment,
we are satisfied that in medical history
has begun,-an era in which the sick may be re-
lieved from their ills without being dosed with
poisonous drugs, which often dangerous and
always of more or less injury to the system"
